Chapter Five: Confession II
“I love you.”
There. I said it. It took all the anger and all my courage
together and he is probably going to embrace me and tell me how sorry he was.
At least, I would have expected him to do that. But he didn’t.
A small smile formed on his lips as he took each of my hands
in his, enlacing our fingers. He slowly leaned his forehead to mine, his
beautiful crimson eyes conveying everything he was going to say the next
moment.
“I love you, too, Aibou,” he whispered, his eyes shining.
He broke the skin on skin contact just for a moment as he
lovingly kissed my forehead, like he had done it so often before. It took my
breath away as he locked our gazes again, his smile widening.
“I had no clue, but now everything is going to be alright,”
he softly said.
I couldn’t believe it, how could he say that?
“How is everything going to be alright? You are together
with that bit- … Anzu!” I hissed, the anger coming back.
He shook his head, squeezing my hands tightly.
“No, I’m not. You cannot understand that at the moment, but
I’m going to explain everything to you. I promise. Trust me with this. But let
me take you home first, you are soaked to your bones.”
He smiled warmly at me and I wasn’t able to resist him any
longer as I felt the love and concern emanateing through our mental link. Just
for the moment I could trust him. He promised to explain and never ever had he
once broken a promise before.
He cradled me in his arms, bridalstyle, and I felt myself
blushing like mad. I hesitantly put my arms around his neck for support and he
just held me tighter, as close as possible. We made our way home in pure
silence, only the falling rain breaking it. When we arrived at the gameshop he
wouldn’t let me down until we stood in front of the bathroomdoor. He sat me
down and pushed me inside, throwing me a towel when he made his way downstairs
again. I could hear faint voices, which had to belong to Grandpa and him.
“Yami, you are all wet, you should go take a shower!”
“Yugi’s first.”
“What happened? I heared the door slamming and both of you
were gone.” I could clearly hear the concern in his voice, just like my
Grandpa.
“Everything’s okay Sugoroku. We had a little fight, but it’s
going to be alright. We will just have to talk it over.”
“A fight? The two of you?”
“Please don’t ask about it, yet? Hopefully we will be able
to explain later, but for now, we will have to figure things out for
ourselves,” Yami said, clearly exhausted from the earlier events.
I decided to finally take a warm shower, let the water
massage my tense mussles and wash the cold away.
When I was finished and down the stairs, Grandpa and Yami
were nowhere in sight.
“Come here, Aibou.”
I jumped lightly at the sudden intrusion of silence,
spotting Yami on the couch, sitting in a totally dark living room. I turned on
the lightes and sat down beside him, gladly accepting the hot chocolate he was
offering me with a small smile. We sat there for a long uncomfortable moment,
the silence unbearable.
“Well,” I asked.
He slowly turned his head and looked at me.
“Sorry. I was just thinking about how to start this. It
ain’t easy.” He sighed, leaning foreward, hanging his head and fiddling with
his hands on his knees.
“You see, all of this stupid shit started about one and a
half months ago. I wanted to ask you out for …, yeah, for a date. But
everything just turned out different. Anzu found out when I wanted to ask Jou
where to go. I know it sounds stupid.”
He blushed
furiously, like I had never seen him blush before. If he blushed, it was
usually just a cute, very light tinge of red, really light. I couldn’t help but
giggle a bit at the sight presenting itself in front of me.
“It’s not funny!” he sreamed, his eyes going wide. “Don’t
laugh about me!”
“Alright, I’ll stop and you go on.” I chuckled one last time
and tried to be serious again, although I wasn’t really mad at him anymore. He
did confess his love for me afterall and it just made me happy. But there was
this feeling in the pit of my stomach that this happiness would fade because of
what Yami was going to say next.
“It was kind of obvious that she had a crush on me and you
know that, too. And that gave her a perfect chance.” He breathed in deeply
before he continued, his voice shaking and his hands clenching into fists.
“She blackmailed me. At first I didn’t give a damn about it,
but then she started threatening your life about three weekes ago.” A small sob
escaped his mouth and I could see that he was crying now, eyes tightly shut and
body shaking uncontrollably.
“I just couldn’t ignore her any longer, I wouldn’t be able
to take it when anything happened to you, so I just agreed and tried to hide it
from you.”
I couldn’t sit still any longer. I jumped up and hugged him,
straddling his legs as my own tears were falling. He hesitantly closed his arms
around me as well, then holding onto me for dear life as we cried together,
sharing the agony of it all. We stayes like this for a while, seeeking comfort
just in the others presence and warmth, trying to get tsome of our composure
back.
Yami was the first to speak again.
“I’m so sorry you had to go through all of this. I can never
make up for what I did to you,” he said with sad eyes, guilt and regret leaking
through our link.
I shook my head embracing him a bit tighter, nearly crushing
him.
“Nah, I’m so impressed that you would do something like that
for me. I love you so much, Yami. That doesn’t matter at all anymore.”
He held me tighter, too, and we stayed in that embrace for a
moment until he scooped me up in his arms for the second time today. He carried
me to our bedroom and carefully put me down on the bed. Climbing in beside me
he covered the both of us with the blankets and leaned over to kiss my forehead
yet again. I scooted closer to him, snuggeling my head in the crook of his head
as he put his arms around me, holding me close. I listened for his breathing
for quite a while until it evened and I was sure he was asleep. It didn’t take
long after that for sleep to claim my mind as well, delving into the warmth
that was Yami.
